Journal Week 8 DIY Music Promotion

This week's class looked at the different ways we can as artists handle most of the promotional work we would otherwise rely on a label, publicist or graphic artist to do, to do ourselves. This saves a lot of money and also gives you more creative control over what is seen by your fans. A very important part of this process is knowing who you are as an artist and how you want to be perceived by your fans or audience. The more you know this, the more you can tune into your genre and become the image your fans want to see, helping expand your audience growth in a healthy way.

Part of this process initially is setting up ways for your audience to access your music, so Bandcamp, Facebook, Instagram, Soundcloud, and if you dare Ticktok. Another step in the journey is radio airplay, so sending your music to radio stations on a national level to maximise the chances of your work receiving airplay. For this, you will need an Electronic Press Kit which includes examples of your work in WAV or mp3, press releases, artwork, and photographs. You can get this stuff done professionally, but these days its easy enough to get pretty good results by doing it yourself or finding friends that can do it for a lot less.

Something that has to be consistent throughout the process of organising your EPK is your Branding, your style or aesthetic, your artist values, your core statement, and your statement of difference, as these are the factors that will resonate with your audience way before they even hear your music or see your artwork. These factors can also dictate how you write your music or create your artwork.

For my free time at the end of class, I decided to create a Facebook page and Instagram account under my stage name, and something happened when I was doing it. It occurred to me that this was it, this is the point where I am committing to something that I did not know where or how it would take me, but it would, and I had to be ready to commit to it every day, for at least the next 10 years. The only thing I needed for everything to begin was a song. One song that is commercially ready, with an attached persona to connect with its audience, and then a constant flow of material being pumped into the pipeline that is JC London, (my stage name).

Additionally, it also occurred to me that you could have multiple personas with targeted branding to tap into different genres and markets, but before any multigenre crossing can be experienced, you still need that very first one that kicks it all off in the beginning.

Hardcore Gamer Battles Hemorrhoids and Video Games

The alternative day I used to be instructed approximately a hardcore gamer that battles video games and beat a hemorrhoid in actual life. It’s a friend’s son who is going to college. He has been a serious hardcore gamer due to the fact that he become going to highschool. The video games he performs the most are Magazine, Darkish Void, and Dante’s Inferno. Being a gamer had in no way been an problem inside the beyond, outside of him not keeping up what he turned into purported to do to help around the house. This is normal with teenagers that are usually linked to the Internet, gaming, or connecting with human beings on social networks.

His first 12 months in university hit him difficult. He was taking a complete agenda of lessons and nonetheless seeking to get in as many hours as he could playing the video games Darkish Void, Magazine, and Dante’s Inferno. Many proctologists agree that stress can reason outside hemorrhoids to develop. I have recognized the young man due to the fact he turned into in high faculty. He’s usually been extraordinarily aggressive in the global of gaming and creating apps. It is a herbal desire he is pursuing a degree in laptop science. It have to had been the pressure eventually precipitated his digestive device to tighten.

The frightening second in his lifestyles took place when he was having hassle passing bowel moves commonly

the brand new pressure of college and his hardcore video gaming classes had prompted horrific constipation (also known as costiveness, dyssynergia defecation, and dyschezia) that changed into turning into painful. teens on occasion will keep things to themselves that they sense are too embarrassing. He in no way spoke approximately it to his dad and mom. Constipation and straining throughout bowel actions is linked to being a main motive of hemorrhoids.

As a past hemorrhoid patient It is horrifying and shocking to realize you’ve got a painful outside hemorrhoid. This university scholar and hardcore gamer in no way expected that at his younger age hemorrhoids were a medical circumstance he would get.

He ultimately advised his dad and mom what he had discovered. After meeting with a physician this hardcore gamer and college scholar was informed he had an outside hemorrhoid that had ruptured developing bleeding.
